We have talked about different types of game development done for iPhone and iPad and also compared it in various forms with Android Game Development, but the most important part to be discussed is what developers think and challenges they face while doing iPhone Game Development and iPad Game Development. What you will find in this, is basic information for the beginners and what developers face while starting iPhone Game Development or iPad Game Development.

Game Development is something not what everyone can do or neither everyone is interested to face the challenges which it incorporates. The biggest of the challenge is leaving your normal development work and being ready for some out of the box logical thinking and implementation. Though Apple has provided good development environment, but it still lacks the most important elements like physics engine or adding or calling out of sprites and related animations. So, you need to be prepared to use any third party API or engine. Now you all know that Xcode has some limitations when it comes to iPhone Game Development or iPad Game Development, though the platform for ...
... the development or you can say the SDK which use is the same for development for both the devices technically, it is still a different ball game.

iPad Game Development can include reach graphics and more detail about the surroundings, where user can see minute details of the world around the characters. In iPhone Game Development however it is not that important as you have to make user to focus more on the character and has less place to showoff your graphics. As far as the development or programming is concerned, you can develop a game and produce it as universal app but there are still some important additions need to be made like adding out graphics related to iPad screen size and also optimizing it. Most of the developers I met has one point which they made was common and that is why Apple has not given more advance functionalities or features specifically for the game development? Even though the apps which are on App store so far, almost 40% of them are games.

As I move forward more in detail with the challenges developer face in iPhone Game Development and iPad Game Development, I will provide some inputs from the developers I have talked with and what they think about the Apple's role and also what they feel about the third party SDK like Coco2D or Unity etc.
